And.....We're Back!

{feeling very loved}

Yup. We dug our way out of the snow.

Took a few winter's naps.

We even celebrated Valentine's Day!

Thanks to Hannah & Ian for the cute table decorations,
we spent a quiet night at home, as a family.

We whipped up some chicken enchiladas (with RED sauce)
and the kids enjoyed their goodies tucked into
these envelope chains I made each of them.

It was a perfect night spent with those I love.
And speaking of those I love....

I love Jeff for his positive nature.

I love Riley for her determination.

I love Hannah for her sense of humor.

I love Alec for his tender heart.

and I love Ian for his need for me. :)

We spent the morning together at the bowling alley with the whole
first grade. Not the best picture from my phone,
but at least I captured the moment!

Then we spent the afternoon together
at school for his class party.

When we got home, I asked him if he'd be my valentine.
He agreed, blushing.

Later, I tried to kiss him goodnight. He protested (as usual),
but I reminded him that we were Valentines.

He replied, "I think I maybe changed my mind."
Love you, too, buddy!
